Hi all. For my job, i have encountered some guys from Microsoft (i was obliged :) ) for a demonstration of their video codec VC9 (they try "normalize" it via the SMPTE forum). During this demo, they showed us their 'Media Center' product which looks like Freevo/MythTV mainly, but with some interesting additionnal features : - automatic picture slideshows : when you enter a folder with images, a slideshow begins automatically - nice transitions during slideshows : during this slideshow, the transition between picture is quite nice (fade, ...) - internal small zoom inside a picture : in order to add some 'movements' to photos, the photos are slowly zoomed (in a factor 1.2/1.5). - When playing SVCD/DVD/AVI/..., if the 'Mute' button is pressed, then the subtitles are displayed (and the sound goes off, of course) - When going back to the main menu, the current display is shown in a very small window closed to the main menu. So you can switch back to the video/audio/picture/TV nicely (like the audio.detach plugin, but for all the items : video, picture, TV, games).
For the "picture" features, it seems that 'feh' can do the job, but i get a seg fault when i try to run it. Photo-desktop (http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~dbenson/photo-desktop/) is a tool for smooth zooming and translations effects, but there is only a few set of parameters. For the rest ??? Any feedback on that ? Sylvain. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program. Does SourceForge.net help you be more productive?
